If you like vellum and you enjoy embossing, then you’ll have fun creating this card. Check out the beautiful Holiday Fancy Foil Designer Vellum behind this ornament. I love how it complimented the snowflake on the ornament.
Keep in mind, if you don’t have the Holiday Fancy Foil Designer Vellum, you might consider stamping snowflakes on vellum and embossing them.
The ornament really pops off the card when it’s heat embossed with clear embossing powder. It’s very realistic, shiny and maybe even looks a bit wet. I love it!!
Base
Versatile Christmas, Clear Mount #140392 or Wood Mount #140389
1.Cut a 4-1/4″ x 11″ piece of Basic Black Cardstock and fold in half. This is your base.
2. Cut a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Whisper White Cardstock to adhere inside your card. This is for your stamped message and to write your own personal message on.
3. Cut a 4-3/4″ x 3-1/2″ piece of Whisper White Cardstock. This piece will frame your Vellum.
4. Cut a 4-1/2″ x 3-1/4″ piece of Smoky Slate Cardstock & Fancy Foil Designer Vellum.
Tip: Use mini glue dots to center and mount your vellum. If you can, try to use the mini glue dot behind a snowflake, it will help hide them.
5. Cut a 7/8″ x 3-1/4″ piece of Whisper White Cardstock. You’ll want to stamp your image on your strip and use stampin dimensionals to pop it up off your card.
Tip: I used StazOn Black Ink to stamp my greeting from the Versatile Christmas Greeting!!
Ornament
1.Using your Big Shot and Delicate Ornament Thinlit Die to cut our your desired ornament, topper and embellishement.
2. Ink your ornament up with VersaMark and then sprinkle clear embossing powder over it.
3. Use your Heat Tool to heat and melt the clear embossing powder.
Tip: Be careful, you can over heat it and burn your cardstock. Lol, I’ve done it!!
4. Use a mini glue dot to adhere the top of your ornament.
5. I used the Stampin’ Up! Silver Cording Trim to tie a bow through my embellishment and then a mini glue dot to adhere it to my ornament.

Enjoyed watching the video of another one of your beautiful creations! I really like the idea of embossing the ornament in clear embossing powder. It really adds that special pop to the card. TFS!

This was a beautiful Christmas card idea. I especially loved the vellum paper. And I will keep looking forward to more videos by you Brandy!
I absolutely love this embellished ornament idea…thank yo so much Brandy for a simple, elegant and inspiring idea that wont take hours to make.

That is a GORGEOUS card. I agree the slate behind the vellum makes the vellum pop. The ornament stamped on the left side of the envelope would be a great touch, too, or some falling snowflakes. Thank you for the video!
Hi Brandy, Thanks for showing that video, I just bought that bundle set from you and now I have this beautiful card to use as my inspiration. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and your family. I also love the new look of your craft room.

I am a retired teacher and I know know if I had fun with the kids then they had fun and learned too. I have fun just watching you and all your techniques. I did like the snowflake and the vellum.
I have been making my list of crafting supplies so maybe Santa will get me a few. Your craft room is beautiful , I’m jealous! We are getting new carpet so many of my things are packed in boxes..You know what that is like so when I get organized maybe I can put my ideas to work!

Beautiful card. I love watching your videos.
Hi Brandy:
Just watched your ornament embellishment video. Always so much easier to complete a card when each step is explained.
This card is just beautiful. I have this bundle set but I like the way your layering looks. I agree the smokey slate under the velum & the white background over the black base, really makes it so rich looking.
Thanks for sharing.
MaryAnn

I so enjoy ” visiting ” with you when you make your cards. I love your enthusiasm and designs. And I just want to take a minute to wish you and your family a Blessed Christmas.
Eileen
Oh this ornament card is darling! I love the simplistic, yet elegant look to it.
Brandy, Love the card. At first I wasn’t sure since I really never make Christmas cards unless they are geared toward the real reason for Christmas, but the Christmas greeting made it! I love it!
thanks so much
God bless
Mary Glowacki

Brandy’s done it again. Simply beautiful card. I love the use of the vellum. I’ll have to get out my vellum and see what I can do with it for Valentines Day.
Loved your card. So gorgeous. Thank you.
Beautifully card Brandy as usuall!!!!!!!!!!! I am enjoin every video you make!
I love the embellished ornament card. And it really looks simple and quick. I had tried sharpening a snowflake stamp using aluminum foil and loved how the foil snowflake looked. Now I can use them to make some cards. Thanks for all the ideas you give in your videos.
This is beautiful Brandy. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Beautiful card, love your videos. I so would love to have a craft room like you.
Love your assembly line work process. It does help when you need to get a number of cards done in a limited amount of time. Your creativity is inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
That is a beautiful card. Thanks for all your great ideals. Hope you have a wonderful holiday
Loved the embellishment card..simplistic but beautiful….love your tutorials…thank you for sharing them with all of us.. 🙂

Love your card and how you heat embossed the ornament. TFS
Another beautiful card. I don’t always think of just clear embossing an art piece but it looks elegant and satisfies my need for bling too.
Thanks for sharing Brandy.
Your craft room really looks awesome.
Have a blessed Christmas and ill keep watching f o r new videos.
Almost thought I was going to get to meet you in person at the Milwaukee On Stage event. Some day I might show up at one of your retreats.

Brandy I just finished watching your video on Embellished Ornament. You are so inspired by your videos. You make stampin up fun again. Thank you for your continued support and for your videos. I am so happy I chose you for my new demonstrator. May you have a blessed day.
Brandy, these are so pretty! I love them, and I think they may be my cards next year! I already made this year’s cards (using the Holiday Home die and stamps), but I love these dies and stamps. Thank you so much for all of the lovely ideas. You are the most enthusiastic demonstrator and i truly enjoy all of the videos and tutorials that you provide. I know it must be a lot of work to produce them, but I really learn so many things. Have a wonderful Merry Christmas with your family. BethAnn Marczak
I love this card. The vellum under the slate grey was a better choice. Thank you for sharing you lovely talent!
Always enjoy your enthusiasm and videos. You have been very helpful in my crafting journey. Thank You.
I always love your 10 in 20~ Thank you for your ideas!
I’m a little, actually a lot behind on my Christmas cards so this has definitely come in handy to help me get them done. Thanks Brandy ????
Hi Brandy, wow, your room is amazing! I love how your husband has expanded in showing some over head views as well. You both Rock. The Christmas card is beautiful and I love the vellum, how did I miss that in the catalog. I love all of your videos, so glad you are settled in your new home, I always look forward to more tutorials. Have a blessed day. Thanks for sharing this lovely card.
This bundle makes the prettiest Christmas ornaments I have seen. I love the 10 in 20 video you made and it has certainly inspired me to start making my cards for 2015. I was so glad to hear about not using Stazeon remover on photopoloamer stamps, I don’t want to mess up my stamps.
Hope you and your family have a blessed and wonderful Christmas in your new home, thanks for your videos and inspiration, Barbara
Love this card. I purchased the bundle but have not been brave enough to to pull it out and use it. I would love to receive a card from you, Brandy.
Happy Holidays, Brandi. Thank you for your 10/20 idea, it’s a wonderful idea and a beautiful card. Take care and God bless.
This card is so beautiful and elegant Brandy! Love the stamp set you used is super adorable and so perfect for this season. Thank you so much for sharing this awesome video, truly enjoying. “Merry Christmas to you and family”!

I just love watching you, I really like your style. I would love to receive a card from you!
Hi Brandy. I just watched your ornament video and I love how you create such beautiful cards and make it look so easy. I would like to know where to send my order to you. Every time I order stampin up I seem to wind up somewhere else, and they are asking me if I’m a demonstrated. I guess you can tell I’m a senior and not real good on computers. I do keep trying. Thank Brandy. Sandy Mericle
Love this card…thanks for the inspiration!
Love your site and especially your use of velium

We also tell the tales of the ornaments each year. My 2 youngest granddaughters are always trying to get the angel made by their mom in the place of honor on the top of the tree. We find they have changed positions several times during the evening.
Love your card
Thanks for all your creative ideas.
Brandy, this is a very pretty card and you make it look so easy. I’m not good at making multiples so will definitely try your techniques out.
Brandi another great card!! Love your 10 in 20 videos.
